– mark the International Volunteer Day 2024 and the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Council of Europe with the presentation of all its projects financed by the European Youth Foundation to the Council of Europe from 2009 to the present, in which more than 300 young people have undergone training with subsequent youth initiatives at that time for their local communities;
-invite youth from the Municipal Council on Youth Affairs to share their experience in planning and decision-making for local youth activities.
